Product information "Wilhelm Lehmbruck: Sculpture 'Mother with Child' (1907), version in bronze"
The theme of 'mother and child' occupied Lehmbruck throughout his life. The 1907 version is a central work from his first Paris exhibition; it shows the mother as a happy-loving woman and is still clearly indebted to classical sculpture. Lehmbruck's outstanding sense of scale and proportion already heralds the sculptural intensification of later works. The sculpture was created after Lehmbruck's first trip to Italy and its Pietà gesture is probably modelled on the Old Masters admired there. Sculptor's model based on the original, size 25.5 x 26 x 22 cm (W/H/D). Edition in fine bronze. Cast using the elaborate lost wax technique, patinated and polished by hand. Weight approx. 8.4 kg.
